In Wolf & Parchment: New Theory Spice & Wolf, Vol. 4, Col and Myuri arrive in Rausbourne, the second-largest city of the Winfiel Kingdom, which teeters on the edge of chaos. Summoned by Heir Hyland, the pair find themselves caught in a deadly standoff involving armed tax collectors, mercenaries employed by local merchants, and the escalating conflict between the Kingdom and the Church, inflamed by Col's own actions as the Twilight Cardinal. As tensions mount and violence threatens to erupt, Lawrence's old rival Eve Bolan resurfaces, offering a precarious alliance. Faced with threats from multiple fronts, Col must navigate a complex power struggle where the line between friend and foe is perilously thin.

Rausbourne, Winfiel Kingdom's second-largest city, is on the verge of boiling over. Col and Myuri have come to this bustling metropolis at Heir Hyland's request, but as soon as they land, they find themselves caught between heavily armed tax collectors and mercenaries hired by the local merchants' association.

The stakes are high when it becomes clear that Rausbourne's troubles are simply one part of the wider conflict between the Kingdom and the Church, which has actually worsened due to Col's deeds as the Twilight Cardinal. If nothing changes, it will be only a matter of time before fighting breaks out.

Right as things start to look their bleakest, Lawrence's old archrival Eve Bolan offers a convenient lifeline. Will the fearless miser turn out to be friend or foe? Either way, Col has no choice but to dive into a three-pronged standoff between the Church, the Kingdom, and the merchants!
